A ton of help, parts, and advice are coming from Richard Pollock of Mule Motorcycles. Wheels, bearing carriers, rotors, triple tree, and forks are on the way. The bike will also run Mules handlebars. If you’re going to tackle a tracker build, Mule is the place to start, check out the website, www.mulemotorcycles.net, some great examples and pages of inspiration.

Down to the basics

Motor comes out next and the frame will be sent to the local sand blaster. Once back from blasting the frame will be de-tabbed and cleaned up. By then I hope to have an oil tank and can start thinking about placement. When the wheels arrive from Mule the real fun will start…….rear triangle reconfigure, rear shock mounts, and chain drive conversion. Stay tuned……….

One empty frame, I’ll make a proper stand for the engine this weekend & get the frame ready for sandblasting
